review:
'The Regiment-The True Story of the SAS Volume 1' by Vincent Brugeas with art by Thomas Legrain is an action graphic novel based on a true story.

The SAS was formed during the early years of World War II. The book focuses on three key individuals: David Stirling, Blair "Paddy" Mayne and "Jock" Lewes. This special forces group is tasked with sneaking on to enemy airbases in Africa and blowing up planes. The work is hard. The training is hard. There are setbacks. Despite this, the group becomes pretty legendary.

Included after the graphic novel is some great supplemental material about the war and the men featured in the book. The art is really great and the story moves along at a good clip.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
